Barcelona - week five
This week started great with a mini roadtrip to the Costa Brava. Normally I should have gone with my Italian friend, his Italian roommate and their Ukrainian girlfriend. Unfortunately, my friend and the Ukrainian girl cancelled in the end, so it was just the roommate and me. I took the train in the morning to Sant Cugat and from there, the Italian guy picked me up with his car. We drove for two hours and then arrived at a beautiful beach, called Playa El Castell.
We stayed there for a while enjoying the sun and walked the Camí de Ronda, a hiking trail along the Costa Brava. After a few minutes it started raining, so we decided to take the car and go to the nearest town, Fosca. There we had lunch (a delicious spaghetti de mar and crema catalana!). Afterwards, we had a siesta at the beach and drove back home in the evening.
The rest of the week I spend my time here in Barcelona. I discovered some new places, went out for dinner on Thursday evening, watched a digital artwork projected on Casa Battló on Friday night and afterwards went for drinks at a place where they were playing live music. Saturday I went to the beach and went out.
Now I’m writing this from Menorca, while enjoying some wine with a Belgian woman who has a mutual connection with me. Sometimes the world feels so small! I arrived here at noon and I’ll be here until Wednesday. I’m already in love with the island!
See you next week!
